Ingredients

Scale
  • 500 g all-purpose flour
  • 1½ tsp salt
  • 2¼ tsp instant dry yeast
  • 120 g sugar
  • 240 ml lukewarm milk
  • 60 g unsalted melted butter cooled to room temperature

  • 170 g brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dough: Mix flour, salt, and yeast in a bowl. In another bowl, combine warm milk and sugar; add melted butter, egg, and vanilla. Gradually mix wet into dry ingredients and knead until smooth.
  2. Let Rise: Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour until doubled.
  3. Make Filling: Cook chopped apples with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, salt, and water until tender.
  4. Roll Out Dough: Punch down risen dough on a floured surface and roll into a rectangle.
  5. Assemble Rolls: Spread apple filling over the dough; roll tightly and slice into pieces.
  6. Bake: Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 30–40 minutes until golden brown.
